BMW E39 Wheel Bolts, Wheel Studs and Nuts

Any time you use a wheel spacer you MUST have a longer wheel bolt or wheel stud to properly fasten the wheel to the hub. We offer extended wheel spacer bolts in silver and black finish in a variety of lengths to fit many spacer sizes. We're up to date on the different thread sizing as well - 12x1.5, 14x1.25, and 14x1.5 so we can supply wheel bolts for just about any BMW or MINI.

Add the spacer thickness to your stock bolt length and that is your ideal extended bolt length. We generally sell bolts by spacer thickness but there may be exceptions. It's always best to measure from the wheel bolt you're currently using. When we list the total length of a bolt it's from the base of the mounting seat to the tip. To be considered safe, a 12x1.5 wheel bolt needs 10mm (6.5 turns) of thread engaged; a 14x1.25 or 14x1.5 bolt needs 12mm (9.0 and 7.5 turns) of engaged thread.

These 'show quality' black chrome wheel bolts have a satin/luster finish to them that looks better than most other finished bolts, including the factory bolts. The bolt head is also finished off better with a rounded head instead of recessed. If your wheels are perfect, your bolts should be too! These are high grade (10.9) 12x1.50 bolts, in the same size as the stock bolt or to be used with a small 5-8mm spacer.

Wheel studs are among the safest and beneficial upgrades you can make on a track car. Not only are wheel studs safer than wheel bolts but they make changing wheels/tires much easier. One of the frustrating things about installing your wheels on the hub is that it's difficult to line up the wheel on the bolt holes. As wheels get larger but also heavier it's even more trouble. Add in a wheel spacer and the task is twice as hard. BMW does produce a wheel alignment pin for this purpose but if you're changing wheels often a stud conversion is the better way to go. With studs you won't have to worry about dropping your expensive wheels onto the brake rotor.

These wheel studs are the same as our hugely popular Bullet Nose studs but with threads along the full length of the stud and no bullet nose. This gives you more threaded area for tightening wheel nuts or allows the use of a closed-end wheel nut. These also have a more OEM appearance. Although these are a lower cost version of our Bullet Nose studs, they are every bit as strong, durable, and safe. The Bullet Nose is an upgrade because it's easier to install and almost impossible to cross-thread a nut and also available in with a graphite dry lube.

55mm overall length = designed to be used without any spacers and possibly with a closed end nut. The stud will protrude from the hub by approximately 40mm so careful planning is required with your combination of brake rotor hat thickness, wheel pad thickness, and your choice of wheel nut. The safest nut engagement is a fully-engaged nut (the stud goes through the whole nut).75mm overall length = the standard size for BMW wheels without using a spacer. Approx. 60mm of threaded stud will protrude from the hub, leaving plenty of space for nearly all wheel nuts. Generally, these can be used with a spacer up to 10mm thick but more might be possible depending on brake rotor hat thickness, wheel thickness, and the wheel nut. The safest nut engagement is a fully-engaged nut (the stud goes through the whole nut).90mm overall length = the common stud length when used with wheel spacers up to 25mm thickness but more might be possible depending on brake rotor hat thickness, wheel thickness, and the wheel nut. The safest nut engagement is a fully-engaged nut (the stud goes through the whole nut). Approx. 75mm of threaded stud protrudes from the hub.

Turner Full-Thread Wheel Stud Features:

Black magnesium phosphorous corrosion resistant coating

Long shank for good brake rotor alignment

Heat-treated aircraft-quality alloy steel

Not all wheel studs are created equal. Beware of cheaper studs on the market! We have seen other studs similar to our own designs that are not a true BMW fitment. There are differences that we have ironed out over our years of selling wheel studs for the BMW market. Our stud prices may be slightly higher than the rock bottom prices on the web but we promise that it's a higher quality.

Our original bullet nose studs are available in 75mm and 90mm overall lengths. The 75mm works great for cars that do not use a spacer (or a spacer smaller than 10mm). We recommend the 90mm length for cars that have a spacer larger than 10mm. Our spacers come with a black magnesium phosphate coating for excellent corrosion resistance. These studs are perfect for dual-purpose street/track cars. The studs are stronger and safer than wheel bolts and have a barrier against corrosion which makes them suitable for street use. For a dedicated race or track car, where wheel changes or pit stops are more frequent, check out our racing dry lube studs.

Our studs are also designed and manufactured with the properly sized shank to work with a wider range of BMW wheel, nut, and brake rotor combinations. We intentionally avoid the extra large shoulders you see on other studs because they can interfere with some brake rotor hats. The extra large shoulder can be too large to allow the rotor to pass through and drilling out the holes is required (not cool!) Our studs have the sufficient shank for the brake rotor without interfering.

Turner Bullet Nose Wheel Stud Features:

Black phosphorous corrosion resistant coating

Innovative nut-starter and bullet shape radius that all but eliminates cross-threading

For the very best in a race-grade wheel stud, stop looking! These are the wheel studs that our race teams insist on (after years of trying every stud design on the market). MSI Racing specializes in hardware for motorsport use (NASCAR and IMSA) and other advanced industries. We tried them on our Grand-Am/IMSA racecars and were very impressed by the performance and durability of their designs. Race wins and championships can come down to the seconds of a pitstop. We could run any wheel stud in the world and we use these. After testing them over the course of a few endurance seasons we decided to offer them to all of our customers as well.

These studs are available in three overall lengths - 74.5mm, 85.5mm, and 95.5mm. All sizes are made with aircraft quality alloy steel and have roll formed threads for greater strength than cut threads. We use a dry film lubricant HM-30 coating containing Teflon & Moly over a manganese phosphate finish. Manganese is preferred over the more common zinc because it's better at reducing friction and wear to prevent thread galling. With the dry lube applied over the phosphate this is the best corrosion resistance we have seen in any wheel stud! Salt tests have shown this stud is superior to others in corrosion resistance. The dry lube helps the nut engage and glide over the threads for faster engagement without cross threading or binding. Other features of our MSI studs include a large bullet nose nut-starter and a properly sized shank to work with a wider range of BMW wheel, nut, and brake rotor combinations. We intentionally avoid the extra large shoulders you see on other studs because they can interfere with some brake rotor hats. The extra large shoulder can be too large to allow the rotor to pass through and drilling out the holes is required (not cool!) Our studs have the sufficient shank for the brake rotor without interfering.

These studs are the perfect choice for endurance racers, sprint racers, track-only cars, or even hardcore street cars. The bullet nose on this stud is deeper than other studs we have used. More of the stud protrudes through the open nut so that everything lines up better on the threads. This helps to eliminate the possibility of cross-threading or thread stripping. In addition, the shank has been machined for proper brake rotor alignment. The dry lube helps the nut engage and glide over the threads for faster pit stops without cross threading or binding.

17mm black lug nut to fit 12x1.5 thread wheel studs (common for most BMWs made before 2012). This is a super tough wheel stud nut in a standard 17mm size. The black finish is durable, corrosion-resistant, and stealthy so it blends in with dark-colored wheels. BMW designed their wheels to use a black bolt so more of the silver design 'pops' or is more eye-catching. These black wheel nuts preserve that effect. 17mm is the standard BMW bolt head size so you won't have to buy extra sockets. The seat is a standard diameter but may not fit all brands of wheels. If you have a small diameter bolt bore on your wheels, try our compact 19mm wheel nuts.

17mm lug nut to fit 12x1.5 thread wheel studs (common for most BMWs made before 2012). This is a super tough wheel stud nut in a standard 17mm size. The zinc finish is durable and bright so your eye catches it quick (important during fast pitstop tire changes). 17mm is the standard BMW bolt head size so you won't have to buy extra sockets.

19mm compact lug nut to fit 12x1.5 thread wheel studs (common for most BMWs made before 2012). This wheel nut has a reduced outer flange for a more compact and minimal fitment. On many wheels, the hole for the lugbolt or lugnut is a very narrow diameter. Not even the stock lugbolt will fit through and these wheels often come with their own lugbolts. Then when adding studs to the car the options for a small diameter lug nut are very limited. We ran into this problem over and over and finally found a solution! These compact lugs have all of the material of a 19mm nut but without the flange of a standard wheel nut. For this reason we do not recommend using these on a wheel that normally takes a standard bolt seat (the seat is very important to the strength and integrity of the design). But for wheels that are designed to use a small seat, these are the solution! Bright and durable zinc finish makes them easy to spot during fast pitstop tire changes.

19mm lug nut to fit 12x1.5 thread wheel studs (common for most BMWs made before 2012). This is a super tough wheel stud nut in an extra large 19mm size. The zinc finish is durable and bright so your eye catches it quick (important during fast pitstop tire changes). The larger size means more material for added strength and durability but may not fit some wheels. If the 19mm is crucial and you have a small diameter bore on your wheels, try our compact 19mm wheel nuts.

Turner Motorsport’s five years of endurance competition has taught us many things. One was that not all lug-nuts are made the same. While the standard nuts that we sell are great for daily drivers, HPDE events, and club racing, a beefier and more durable nut was needed for the 3-hour, 6-hour, and 24-hour professional endurance races. During the 24 Hours of Daytona, our crew guys made over 80 tire changes in NASCAR-style pitstops. That kind of abuse from air guns and fast work required the "next level" of lug-nut. These nuts are a high-grade steel with a zinc coating and they incorporate several innovative features.

The wheel-side of the nut has recessed threads so that the nut has to be square to engage the threads. Without the recess, it’s far too easy to start the threads with the nut being crooked.

The 19mm head of the nut is slightly rounded to help the socket find its position.

The zinc plating that we use is reasonably durable without being excessive. With too much coating, the chipped and worn coating fragments can end up in the threads, leading to all sorts of trouble. Anyone who has used nuts repeatedly knows that the coating is not going to last forever. The constant abuse from air guns will chip it all away. So why add weight and the potential for disaster with excess coating? We did away with most of the danger from that with a lighter coating that still resists the tough environment of the track.

Features:

Developed for our Grand-Am / Continental race team

High grade steel to withstand the extreme abuse of air guns and race conditions

Bright yellow zinc plating to help tire changer zoom in on their target quickly and accurately

Minimal plating won’t result in excess coating wearing off and “gumming up” the threads

Threadlocker is essential when doing any work to your car, especially prepping it for the track. Loose bolts should never happen! If you are a do-it-youselfer, or do much wrench turning, then you know about threadlocker (generically known as "locktite" or by the brand name Loctite). You also know a little goes a long way. This small tube of Palm Labs Turbo-Lock red threadlock is perfect for that small job -- or a few small jobs! This tube has 2.0 mL (0.07 fluid ounces) of high-temp, high-strength threadlocker. There are just too many different uses for this, and no mechanic or DIYer, should be without some in his or her toolbox.
